Chapter 187 Tell me, are you going a little too far?

There are only a few dim stars in the sky, and there is no moon.

Away from the hustle and bustle at the table, Meng Zhi and others had been taken away.

Lamps were lit up and down the main hall, creating a solemn atmosphere.

"Shu Yu, what do you mean, Mr. Hou?"

When Mrs. Meng saw her grandson in ragged clothes and being pushed in by the shadow, with a cloth stuffed in his mouth and unable to make a sound, Mrs. Meng felt bad all over. She even called Mr. Cui Xuan by her first name.

Not long ago, she was using a table in the front yard, but Cui Yun's people invited her over.

Not to mention her, even Cui Xuan was confused.

"Aunt, don't worry."

Mrs. Cui Xuan sat next to Mrs. Xuan. She actually looked down on Meng Zhi, who was a libertine and a talkative man.

"Let's wait until Brother Yun comes over."

"Wait for him to come?"

Mrs. Meng smiled angrily.

"My brother Zhi came to congratulate us, but he was treated like this. Is this how the Xuan and Cui houses treat guests?"

This is the grandson she loves the most!

She quickly pulled the cloth from Meng Zhi's mouth.

Meng Zhi's face was covered with tears, his hair was messy, and he was shaking with fear. He looked really pitiful.

Meng Zhi: "Grandma, grandma, save me!"

He wanted to stand up, but was held down firmly by Yingyi's thumb.

Mrs. Meng was angry.

"Let him go."

Yingyi listened to Cui Yun's instructions.

Mrs. Meng was heartbroken. She looked straight at Mrs. Xuantai who said nothing, and her angry voice was sharp.

"Sister, you are the best married woman in the family. Unlike me, a miserable man who was demoted many times, you are now just an inconspicuous little official in Shengjing. There are so many people who have come to see my jokes over the years."

"I am your biological sister!"

"I thought you were different."

"I never thought that you would help my daughter and grandson to bully me as well. As expected, if you are a wealthy and powerful family, if you feel embarrassed, don't send wedding invitations. It's better not to be relatives in the future, than to humiliate people like this!"

Mrs. Xuantai sat upright and put her hands on her knees. The demeanor around her was the accumulation of time.

Mrs. Meng has visited her many times over the years, always complaining.

She cherishes the bond of sisterhood and will never treat her badly.

I think I'm not bad at what I did.

She asked the mother-in-law behind her to serve tea.

"You don't have to be so angry."

"Brother Yun is the most prudent and considerate in his actions. If I were you, I would not shout at me and lose my manners. Why not ask your good grandson what he did to make you so angry at him."

The place where Shen Hua was standing was Xie Xun. After Yan Mi left, everything became completely silent in an instant.

It seemed like the wind was blowing gently. I didn’t want to break the tranquility at this moment.

Shen Hua looked at the direction Xie Xun left for a long time, even though it was just a dark mass thicker than ink.

Cui Yun didn't rush her.

Shen Hua held her face in her hands: "What Crown Prince Xie said just now does not reveal the roughness and heroism of the soldiers at all. On the contrary, Wen Zou Zou, if he didn't know better, would have thought he was a civil servant."

Cui Yun said calmly: "Many girls in Shengjing admire him."

Even if no one mentioned this to Shen Hua, she knew it.

She doesn't know about other girls, but Yan Mi is the one. How can a man who can make Yan Mi worry about her be bad?

"It's natural!"

"I heard that when he appeared on Shengjing Street, there were many girls who broke their wallets for him."

There was no emotion on Cui Yun's face.

"Have you seen enough? If not, why don't you catch up together?"

Shen Hua: "That's not necessary."

Cui Yun is neither salty nor bland.

"If you are willing, I can also invite the person back and let you take a closer look."

Shen Hua felt that Cui Yun was a little rushed. She reluctantly looked away.

"No, it's against the rules."

"He is not familiar with me after all."

She said honestly: "I'm not in a hurry. I'll take my time tomorrow when I have time."

The corner of Cui Yun's mouth curled into a mocking arc. It was not angry, let alone appetizing, but he and Shen Hua had already made a lifelong commitment, so it was more or less uneasy.

What did Shen Hua think of him?

The girl really doesn’t know how to avoid suspicion.

I will teach you slowly in the future.

"Go to the main hall."

Throwing these words, he walked away.

Shen Hua blinked and hurriedly caught up, noticing Cui Yun's mood swings.

She stumbled away, and Cui Yun seemed to have no intention of waiting for her.

The girl couldn't find the way and couldn't help but feel a little struggling, but she didn't blame Cui Yun at all!!!

She was even moved for no reason. Cui Yun must be doing it for her and couldn't wait to deal with that piece of shit!

Good cousin!!!

But this feeling could not last long.

With a delicate little face, Shen Hua ran forward with difficulty and grabbed the hem of Cui Yun's clothes.

"Can't you wait for me?"

Shen Hua complained about him.

"It's too dark and I can't see the road clearly. What if I fall?"

Then he started blaming again.

"Tell me, are you going a little too far?"

Cui Yun tugged at her lips coldly, her patience gradually disappearing.

He raised his hand to brush away the girl's scratching claws. Then he casually straightened out the wrinkled hem of his clothes, but he didn't answer the question.

"Since the lantern in Madam Shen's hand is no longer lit, isn't it too cumbersome to hold it?"

Shen Hua lowered his head.

A pampered girl like her would be tired if she had to chase Cui Yun while holding a lantern.

"But I can't throw it away."

"Why not?"

Shen Hua felt that Cui Yun was testing her.

She was extremely vigilant and responded cautiously.

"This lamp has the Xie Mansion's logo on it."

There were words engraved on the bamboo pole in the hand. She rubbed the back slowly and recognized it.

"I have lived in the Cui Mansion for some time, so I naturally have to know some rules. This is the Xuan Mansion, and everything I say and do is in my cousin's honor. I can't just leave it here and let the servants in the house pick it up later. If word gets out, let’s not mention what Crown Prince Xie thinks. If outsiders make a big fuss, they will think that Cui Mansion and Xie Mansion are at odds with each other."

What she said was always reasonable. It seemed as if every word she said was considered for Cui Yun.

Ah.

Cui Yun really doesn't need her to be so considerate.

Cui Yun's face was stern, his eyes were like spring water and ice: "If you can't leave, I will ask Ying Wu to come over."
